How could I possibly exit Unofficial Sandwich Week without a tip of the sandwich knife to Tom Colicchio, Top Chef judge and co-founder of 'wichcraft, a fabulous chain of sandwich restaurants (New York, San Francisco, Las Vegas)? Check out his book--due out the end of this month--in which Colicchio shares some of his creative combos, like Slow-Roasted Pork with Red Cabbage, Jalapeños and Mustard. Desserts are there too, like Banana Bread with Caramel Ice Cream and Pecan Brittle.

Hello there!

So, this is not really an active blog any more. Every once in awhile I get inspired to come and rant or share, but it's pretty infrequent. Honestly, there are just too many bloggers in this world. It makes my head hurt.

BUT I had a lot of fun putting this together for 5-ish years, and you should definitely have a poke around. My personal favorites are the post on measuring citrus zest and the connection between Napoleon and bees (and cicadas and houseflies).

About Me

When I was a Girl Scout, I got my cooking badge by making a cookstove out of an empty coffee can turned upside down and set over a "burner" made of a tunafish can packed with coiled corrugated cardboard soaked in paraffin. I cooked pancakes. (Makes a great, perfectly round pancake, by the way.) Anyway, let's just say that I've been earning more and more complicated cooking badges ever since. I have edited, tasted, tested, or created a ridiculously large number of recipes in my life—including at the wonderful (but sadly now defunct) Hallmark Magazine, where I was the food editor. While at the magazine I wrote a blog and got bitten by the blog bug, so here we are.
And here's a bunch of other stuff I've done.
